Shanghai 2026 — a complete guide to the best places, food and prices. The Bund, Yu Garden, street food and restaurants — everything you need to know before traveling to China. 00:00 — Shanghai as the world’s largest megacity, with a preview of tourist spots and “behind-the-scenes” local areas. 00:27 – First Impressions of the City An emotional monologue: 30 million residents, but no chaos or dirt. A contrast of skyscrapers, colonial architecture and quiet gardens. 01:37 – Sichuan Airlines Flight: Madrid → Shanghai A ticket for €234 with two suitcases of 23 kg each. Tip: order the vegetarian meal. 03:07 – Pudong Airport — Maglev Train A magnetic levitation train to the city: ticket price 40 yuan ($5.5). It reached 300 km/h instead of the advertised 450 km/h. 03:40 – Airport Canteen Dumplings in egg dough with chicken and cabbage — light, diet-friendly food recommended by the author. 05:03 – Hotel A small room for €23/night with a view of the skyscrapers. Snow-white towels are the main advantage. 06:03 – Morning Walk Through the Streets Wide pedestrian sidewalks, café food left directly on the street without security — a sign of how safe the city feels. 07:33 – Holiland Bakery A famous Chinese bakery: every dessert is a work of art, made right in front of customers. 08:13 – Luckin Coffee A phenomenon of Chinese business: orders through a QR code, 40+ people served in minutes without queues. 09:25 – Tianzifang An art district from the 1930s: narrow alleys, craft workshops, galleries, bars and street food. Residents still live on the upper floors. 11:59 – Xintiandi A historic shikumen-style district — “stone gate” houses — combining Shanghai and European architecture. Today it is home to luxury boutiques and restaurants, with cocktails from $20. 14:49 – French Concession The most photogenic area of Shanghai. The Wukang Building shaped like a flatiron, plane trees, cafés. The history of leasing 66 hectares from the Chinese emperor starting in 1849. 20:47 – Sinan Mansions 20 restored mansions in different styles: museums, restaurants and pedestrian courtyards without cars. 21:59 – Jade Buddha Temple A Buddhist temple built in 247, covered in gold and surrounded by skyscrapers. A 4-meter Buddha statue, entrance fee 50 yuan. 23:37 – 1000 Trees Shopping Mall A futuristic shopping mall: concrete columns with living trees on every terrace. Free access to the terrace, with a panoramic view of Suzhou Creek. 25:34 – M50 Art District A former factory transformed into an art space: galleries, installations and trendy cafés. Similar to Kyiv’s Art Factory in Darnytsia. 26:25 – Yu Garden A classic Chinese garden from the 16th century, built 400 years ago. Famous for its zigzag bridge over the water, believed to scare away evil spirits. Entrance fee 30 yuan. 30:14 – Nanjing Road The main shopping street, 5.5 km long, with 2 million visitors a day. From fake Rolex watches for $20 to real ones for $20,000. 31:38 – The Bund 52 colonial buildings built by the British and French. Across the river is “Shanghai’s Manhattan” with four main skyscrapers: Shanghai Tower, 630 m; SWFC, the “bottle opener”; Jin Mao Tower, the “pagoda”; and the Oriental Pearl Tower. 33:27 – Ferry Across the Huangpu River A crossing to the other side for 2 yuan, around €0.3 — one of the cheapest ways to see the city skyline from the water. 34:05 – Pudong District Shanghai’s Manhattan up close. A circular Skybridge with panoramic views of all the skyscrapers. 35:49 – Shanghai Tower Observation Area The 52nd floor is a budget alternative to the main observation deck: a bookstore + coffee gives access to two viewing areas on different sides of the building. 37:02 – Xiaomi Car Showroom An unexpected discovery: Xiaomi electric cars impressed with their design. Observation: around 90% of cars on Shanghai’s streets are electric vehicles from Chinese brands. 39:04 – NIO Electric Car Test drive: battery swap in 3 minutes, automatic seat adjustment, massage seat. 41:13 – Zhujiajiao Water Town 40 minutes by metro from Shanghai, free entrance. Canals, stone bridges, tiled-roof houses and boats with gondoliers. Local cats are a separate attraction. 45:30 – Louis Vuitton Store A ship-shaped installation made of bags between skyscrapers — impressive brand marketing. 46:15 – Final Thoughts on Shanghai Food Crab dumplings: 38 yuan near the hotel vs 88 yuan in the tourist area. Conclusion: food starts from $3–4 for a filling meal; the main rule is to move away from tourist spots. Special highlights: handmade noodles at Dushi Noodle and dim sum for 10 yuan. 🎒 Support with a donation | 🇬🇧 Support donations 🇺🇦 💳 4028 0820 1261 2337 🇪🇺 SEPA transfer 🏦 IBAN: LT153130010104812310 🌍 🔗 patreon.com/fomkintravel TRC20: TTwXJsRN5vhsbYykLG686oPJLrsgUCtdFb Travel questions — in the comments under the video. #shanghai #china #chinesefood
